Song Time

Hello, everyone! It's been a long time!!
Right now I'm on vacation :D

Summer camp was fun, but I'm happy to relax~

This blog post is going to be dedicated to a song, though.
I was looking up the lyrics so that I could sing along when I found a site that had them in Korean and English. But the translation just seemed so off.. So, like any curious and slightly over-confident person, I attempted to translate them myself.

I know my Korean skills are a little lacking, though, so if you have corrections, pleeeease share :) There are a few lines that could use some help.

..And I must admit that those few lines baffled me quite completely. One being the title of this beautiful, mysterious, and slightly sad song: 그 어떤 말로도. I've seen it translated as 'I have no words', but I knew that wasn't quite right... So I asked my boyfriend :3

So without any further rambling, the lyrics (followed by the song):



 그 어떤 말로도 by Vodka Rain (보드카레인) ft. Jang YoonJu (장윤주)

그렇게도 빛나던 그대..
So too do you shine...
어디론가 떠난 밤
A night to leave for somewhere
모든 걸 잃은 하루는 지고...
The day you lost everything ends...
창가에는 어둠도 빛들도 사라진 채
At the window, the darkness and the lights have vanished
난 아무것도 보이지 않아
I don't see anything

난 아무것도 보이지 않아
I don't see anything
그 어떤 말로도..
I can't convey it with words...
어둠 속으로 세상지고
Beneath the darkness the world falls
눈물로도 어떤 수 많은 기도로도
And even with tears and a great number of prayers
다시 볼 수 없는 사람
Again I'm blind    (or: The person I can't see again?)
여기있어요 나 여기있어요
Here, I am here
이렇게 그대곁으로 찾아왔어요
To be there for you, I came to find you like this
볼수없나요 너무추워요
Can't you see? It's too cold
시린하늘이 싫어 옆에 왔는데
I hate the cold sky. I came to your side
짐작조차도 할 수 없나요
I can't even guess
이렇게 보는건 그대 아닌가요
How you can't see anything this way
울지말아요 미안해요 그대...
Don't cry. I'm sorry. You...

아무것도 보이지 않아 ...
Don't see anything

 그 어떤 말로도 by Vodka Rain (보드카레인) ft. Jang YoonJu (장윤주)


There :)

Again, just my best stab at it. I'm by no means proficient...
Let me know if you fancy the song as much as I do!
Or even if you don't care for it at all, I guess...

I just wanted to see what I am capable of... But againagainagain please share your corrections with me if you have them. Different translations or interpretations, too! :D



Take care, all! xoxox
